Introducing Ultimate Comics: Divided We Fall.

By Joey Esposito

It's been a while since the Ultimate Universe has had a major event that connected all of its titles, but that all changes this summer. At C2E2's Ultimate Comics panel, Marvel unveiled plans for Ultimate Comics: Divided We Fall, a major event that spans Ultimate Comics Ultimates, Ultimate Comics X-Men, and Ultimate Comics Spider-Man beginning in July. However, they were careful about underlining the fact that it is not a crossover -- each series will read just fine on its own, but together they give a more complete picture of the ongoing events.

The story revolves around the return of Ultimate Captain America, who returns after the Ultimates become scattered across a collapsing America and a new villain emerges. The story begins in Ultimate Comics Ultimates #13, which hits in July, and will be spanning the Ultimate Universe through September.
